December Marks Sixth Month of 2025 to Surpass 2024 Sales as Median Sales Price Softens
December home sales climbed 14.9% from November and were 5.0% ahead of December 2024. This report closes out a full year that closely mirrors 2024 across the 52 metro areas surveyed.
Home sales in 2025 were split through the year. While home sales trailed 2024 in six months, it exceeded 2024 in the other six – including five of the last seven months.
December’s Median Sales Price of $434,000 was 1.1% higher than the $429,000 Median Sales Price recorded a year ago. By contrast, December 2024 posted a 6.2% year-over-year increase compared to 2023. December 2025 also marked the 30th consecutive month of year-over-year price gains, though its percentage growth was the second smallest in the same two-and-a-half-year stretch.
